Dashboard

Introduction

In this discussion, we would like to introduce you to our newest feature, the GAIA Dashboard. The dashboard will be used, to create a visually guided experience for new users to host their own GAIA hub.
The first version of the GAIA Dashboard be available by the end of August 2022 and will be used to create the configuration for the different modules.

For us, the highest priority is, to make the GAIA Storage System available to everybody, thus making the set up process as simple as it can get. Therefore, the finished version of the dashboard will be a WebApp / Desktop (tbd), that let's the user run their own hub, and guide them through the entire set up process.

Design

From a design standpoint, we take the approach of keeping it as simple as possible to not confuse any new users. The image above is from our first draft of the visual guided configuration generator.
For now, it is planned, that the configuration generator will be hosted in GH pages. It is still unclear to us, what the best approach is, in hosting the final version of the dashboard.
